OHAUS EXP8202 Explorer EXP Precision Balance, 8,200 g Capacity, 0.01 g Readability, AutoCal, Touchscreen

OHAUS EXP8202 Precision Balance — Centigram Precision Across an 8.2 kg Range

Demanding workflows that require both large capacity and fine resolution find a dedicated solution in the OHAUS EXP8202 Precision Balance. At 8,200 g with 0.01 g readability, it offers ten times the resolution of standard 0.1 g instruments at the same capacity tier—enabling more precise yield verification, tighter tolerance checks, and greater process control for operations weighing at the multi-kilogram scale.

Key Features

• 8,200 g / 0.01 g Resolution: Centigram precision at 8.2 kg capacity makes this model suitable for demanding formulation and quality applications where 0.1 g resolution leaves too much uncertainty.
• ±0.02 g Linearity: Tighter linearity across the full 8.2 kg range supports accurate weight checks throughout the capacity span, not just near tare or full load.
• AutoCal Internal Calibration: Automatic calibration triggered by temperature change maintains 0.01 g accuracy in production and laboratory environments without scheduled manual procedures.
• 1-Second Stabilization Time: Even at 0.01 g resolution, the EXP8202 settles quickly—critical for maintaining throughput in high-volume weighing operations.
• 201 × 178 mm Stainless Steel Pan: Generously sized platform handles bulk containers, wide beakers, and industrial components common at the 5–8 kg sample range.
• 7-Inch Color Touchscreen: Large glass-overlay display offers clear numerical readout and one-touch access to 15-plus application modes without additional configuration.
• Complete Interface Suite: USB-A ×2, USB-B, USB-C, Ethernet, RS232, and optional wireless modules enable real-time data routing to any connected laboratory or production system.

Detailed Overview

The OHAUS EXP8202 Precision Balance targets the specific need for centigram accuracy in the upper range of bench precision instrumentation. With 0.01 g typical repeatability and a minimum weight of 1.4 g (USP threshold: 14 g), it accurately weighs samples from a few grams to just over 8 kilograms. This breadth reduces the need to route different sample mass categories to separate instruments. The four-level user access system and 100,000-entry internal log maintain traceability standards compatible with pharmaceutical GMP, food safety, and environmental monitoring frameworks. HID device mode allows direct computer data entry without drivers—a practical feature when operators transfer data to spreadsheets or LIMS systems throughout a shift. The compact 97 mm bench height fits under standard shelving, keeping the instrument accessible without consuming excessive vertical workspace.

Applications

• High-precision pharmaceutical batch verification at kilogram scale
• Chemical manufacturing formulation where 0.1 g resolution introduces unacceptable tolerances
• Food production quality sampling requiring centigram accuracy on large product units
• Industrial part weight verification across a wide mass range
• Environmental and materials testing involving heavy sample matrices

Why Choose the OHAUS EXP8202?

Operations that need the resolution of a standard 2 kg precision balance but cannot fit their samples within a 2 kg range will find the EXP8202 purpose-designed for them. Centigram accuracy at 8.2 kg, automatic calibration, and robust compliance logging represent a combination that is genuinely hard to find at this capacity level. Add to cart to bring verified 0.01 g precision to your full-scale production or research workflow.
